Cream Butter and Sugars
In a large bowl, beat together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- 4
Add Eggs and Vanilla
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

Scoop Dough
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the edges are set. The centers may look slightly underbaked; they will firm up as they cool.

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
